After Chris Ballard's firing, Colts find themselves staring at a major overhaul
The Colts could be facing major changes
The Indianapolis Colts recently fired head coach Chris Ballard in the middle of the season. The team has only made the playoffs once since 2018, and they have not won a playoff game since then. Their best record in recent years has been 9-8, and they've finished 8-9 in each of the past two seasons. Currently, the Colts are 2-4, with a recent loss to the winless Titans and victories over lower-ranked teams.
Ballard struggled to find the right quarterback, despite having a strong roster after Andrew Luck's departure. The Colts might have had their choice in Daniel Jones a year ago, but trading for cornerback Sauce Gardner backfired. Owner Carlie Irsay-Gordon has been closely involved with the team since her father's passing and plans to conduct a thorough search for a new general manager, with the goal of improving the team's performance.
The Colts will likely explore moves to bolster their roster, particularly ahead of the trade deadline, as they face significant challenges in the upcoming season.
